    Dang.
    I'm sorry about your loss.
    But you're a strong person and you'll be okay - that's a positive note out of such a dark circumstance.
    I hope you find it in your heart to forgive Amanda someday.
    Many people can relate to this...unfortunately.
    Stuff like this is saddening, especially when being able to relate.
    My heart goes out to you.

    I know it is tough when one goes through something like this. Best thing to do is remember the good times you had with her. I could only imagine the heartache you and her family is going through, my deepest sympathies!

    (drop the heart)

    Im sorry you had to witness this. I lost a dear friend of mine, Stacey, because of him committing suicide. Been 4 years this past January. only knew him for a month. ~sigh~

    its a scary time; dont let the events that happened change for the worse in your future. you will find in your strength, carry on her existence as she were still alive, and know that she is with you-still.

    me and one of our friends went to visit him on 'his day'. freezing temperatures/cloudy/about to rain outside, but me-n-her were so warm we were about to strip off our coats. its like his presence was with us that evening; that he was showing us that tears should not be shed for him in sadness, but in the relieve that we found strength with him there.

    I cannot enter what all Ive written in dedication of this event, since there is no acceptance of pre-writes. Which, Im not 'hatin' on. But I have quite a few that you can read, including one that is posted on my front page-profile thingy. (I listed them as "for Stacey" on [i like to say] each one, but I might've missed 1 or 2. idk)

    my thoughts are with yours; building up a foundation to make you stronger

      I'm sorry for your loss.. It's good you found relief, and strength. I'll read the poems you've written and try to comment on each one. Not right away though, because I'm still not okay. Alittle better, but still bawling every night.

      Thank you, though.

    Oh, my God, I am so sorry. *HUGS*

    I lost a friend to suicide last November, and it has been very hard to accept. There are still days when I look upwards and silently demand, "WHY?!"

    I hope you have other good friends and that you can all help heal the hurt for each other.

      I do have good friends that are helping me get through. Some of them didn't know her so they don't really understand. But according to one, I'm referencing suicide and death a lot more than i used to, and that scares me.

    I highly doubt I'll have time to write for this, since it closes in a few hours, but if I can, I will. Honestly, I never know how to respond to loss, even though I lost a friend three years ago; even then I was unresponsive to sympathy and just moved on with my life and hardly cried... which bit me in the arse. Cry if you want to. Write about your feelings. Make Amanda proud. And while the pain never goes away, it will get better.
